A San Diego police captain’s son has pleaded guilty to several charges, including two counts of battery and one count of assault, the San Diego Office of the City Attorney confirmed.

Alex Guaderrama, 23 – son of Northwestern Division Capt. Manny Guaderrama – is accused of groping two women and punching a third woman in the face during a late-night altercation near a Pacific Beach taco shop on Garnet Avenue last August.

Investigators say Guaderrama also broke a car window with his hand and left the scene following the incident. He returned a short time later to face police and admitted he had been drinking.

Guaderrama was not arrested the night of the incident. Instead, officials filed a “notify warrant” to the City Attorney’s office, which detectives said is normal protocol.
